"We delivered record quarterly revenue, an increase of 27% year-over-year, and record adjusted earnings per share that increased 21%," said Stephen G. Kaniewski, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Operating margin improvement was driven by our ability to successfully execute on pricing strategies, higher volumes, and better fixed-cost leverage. We continue to prioritize actions to better serve our customers by leveraging our global manufacturing footprint, strategically expanding capacity in key growth markets, and implementing sourcing strategies to help mitigate continuing supply chain volatility. We are seeing strong demand for our products and solutions across global infrastructure and agriculture markets and our Valmont teams around the world are doing an excellent job of delivering value to our customers every day. We are executing consistently on our strategy of creating sustainable growth across our businesses and long-term value for our shareholders."
Second Quarter 2022 Segment Review
Infrastructure (67.0% of Net Sales)
Products and solutions to serve the infrastructure markets of utility, renewable energy, lighting, transportation and telecommunications, and coatings services to preserve and protect metal products
Sales of $765.0 million grew 23.9% year-over-year with double-digit sales growth across all product lines, net of a 2.5% unfavorable foreign currency translation impact. Higher sales were driven by favorable pricing globally, primarily in the Transmission, Distribution and Substation (TD&S), Lighting and Transportation (L&T), and Telecommunications product lines, and higher volumes, notably in the Renewable Energy, Telecommunications and TD&S product lines.
Operating Income improved to $84.6 million or 11.1% of net sales compared to $61.6 million or 10.0% ($67.7 million or 11.0% adjusted1) in 2021, driven by favorable pricing and improved fixed-cost leverage, including SG&A.
On June 1, 2022, Valmont acquired a majority interest in ConcealFab, advancing the Company's growth strategy to deliver industry-leading 5G infrastructure solutions for the telecommunications market.
Agriculture (33.0% of Net Sales)
Center pivot and linear irrigation equipment for agricultural markets, including parts and tubular products; advanced technology solutions for precision agriculture
Sales of $377.8 million increased 34.0% year-over-year, led by higher average selling prices of irrigation equipment globally and higher volumes, notably in North America and Brazil. In Brazil, revenues grew more than $40.0 million year-over-year, demonstrating robust market demand for irrigation equipment and ag solar products.
Operating Income was $58.0 million, or 15.5% of net sales ($62.2 million or 16.6% adjusted1) compared to $42.0 million or 15.0% of net sales ($42.9 million or 15.3% adjusted1) in 2021. The benefit of higher average selling prices and additional volume leverage was partially offset by higher SG&A, including incremental R&D expense for technology investments.
Realignment of Reporting Segments
On April 6, 2022, the Company announced that it had realigned its reporting segment structure beginning with its first quarter 2022 financial results. The new reporting segments are Infrastructure (includes the previous segments of Utility Support Structures, Engineered Support Structures and Coatings) and Agriculture (a renaming of the previous Irrigation segment). A recast of comparable prior-year segment financial information for 2020 and 2021 affected by the change is available in a summary presentation on the Investors page at Valmont.com. The Company's historical GAAP balance sheet, income statement and cash flows are not affected.
Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital Allocation
The Company generated year-to-date operating cash flows of $68.0 million through strong earnings and managing working capital to mitigate supply chain volatility while supporting strong revenue growth. At the end of the second quarter, cash and cash equivalents were $154.6 million. Valmont purchased approximately $10.0 million of company stock in the second quarter and approximately $112.0 million remains on the current authorization with no expiration.
Increasing Full Year 2022 Financial Outlook and Updating Key Assumptions
The Company is increasing its 2022 full-year net sales and diluted earnings per share outlook from the previous indications that were communicated last quarter, and is providing updated key assumptions for the year.

FX Translation Impact on Net Sales |
0.0% |
~ (2.0%) |
- Revised net sales growth is primarily due to favorable pricing to offset continued broad-based inflation
- Now expecting a full-year tax rate of ~27.5% due to the geographic mix of earnings
- Now expecting a ~2.0% unfavorable foreign currency translation impact on net sales vs. prior year
- Capital expenditures continue to be in the range of $110.0 - $120.0 million to support strategic growth and Industry 4.0 advanced manufacturing initiatives
Kaniewski continued, "We've had a very strong first half of the year and are increasing our full-year outlook based on this performance and several other positive factors, including our record backlog of $2.0 billion, which reflects continued strong, global market drivers across our businesses and provides significant momentum as we look ahead to the balance of 2022 and into 2023. Additionally, broad-based market strength for infrastructure products and solutions that help deliver safety, security and reliability while also participating in the change to renewable generation sources across our markets, are driving robust demand globally. Favorable agricultural market fundamentals and continued heightened concerns over food security have led to increasing activity levels across global markets. While inflation and supply chain volatility continue, we remain focused on what we can control: leveraging the strength of our organization to deliver innovative products and solutions to our customers, maintaining cost discipline, advancing operational excellence, and executing on our pricing strategies. Additionally, our balance sheet is strong and gives us flexibility to execute our long-term strategic plan. Through our diversified business portfolio, organizational emphasis on ESG principles and return on invested capital focus, we are well-positioned to drive sustainable, profitable growth and deliver long-term value to our shareholders."

VALMONT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
SUMMARY OF EFFECT OF SIGNIFICANT NON-RECURRING ITEMS ON REPORTED RESULTS
REGULATION G RECONCILIATION
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
The non-GAAP tables below disclose the impact of intangible asset amortization (Prospera) and stock-based compensation recognized for the Prospera employees on fiscal 2022 results. We believe the adjustments for Prospera allow for a better comparison of future Agriculture segment performance as compared to historical results. The non-GAAP tables below also disclose the impact of a write off a receivable following arbitration of a commercial transaction from 2014, acquisition diligence and restructuring expenses on segment operating income and net earnings as well as the impact of the U.K. tax rate change on net earnings (adjusts GAAP tax rate from 19.0% to 22.5%) on fiscal 2021 results. Amounts may be impacted by rounding. We believe it is useful when considering company performance for the non-GAAP adjusted net earnings and operating income to be taken into consideration by management and investors with the related reported GAAP measures.

VALMONT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
REGULATION G RECONCILIATION OF FORECASTED GAAP AND ADJUSTED EARNINGS
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
The non-GAAP tables below disclose the impact on the range of estimated diluted earnings per share of the (1) amortization of the intangible asset (Prospera) and (2) stock-based compensation for Prospera employees. We believe the adjustments for Prospera allow for a better comparison of future Agriculture segment performance as compared to historical results. We believe it is useful when considering company performance for the non-GAAP adjusted net earnings to be taken into consideration by management and investors with the related reported GAAP measures.
